Played a few rounds today for * and giggles. First round had a few OOR players but the game ran pretty smooth, nothing out of the ordinary. Next round people started to leave and 3/4 of the players on the server were out region and the game went completely to . Bullets not registering, people skipping around the map and sliding everywhere, one shot kills, and the oh so wonderful getting killed behind cover (which DICE claimed they “fixed”). I love Battlefield, but this game can be more painful to play than fun. I can’t believe that over a year later we’re still dealing with this b.s.
Broken game is indeed, still broken.
When it works, BF4 can be fun.
When it doesn’t, we take to the streets to protest.
The game is not broken. It’s the players that either play out of region or locals that have terrible internet.
Maybe it’s easier for you to blame the game for your bad skills.

Does this “solution” really work in leveling the playing field against OOR players?
I have tested choking just the up to about 80-100k prior to the big patch and it did grant reaction time and stop some the one frame kills. Since the patch - nothing works! As I have said also, playing OOR does not seem to work both ways but the IPs state the servers are in real locations and again, I can set my ping to 1000ms if need be. The higher the ping, bullets become air. Keep in mind, I play on the east coast US which is anything but - and seeking a method to level the field and combat this broken nonsense is not cheating. Playing on the east coast when you are from Japan is - ban them!
Interesting note. Throttle to 80k up and 500k down and the game runs smooth as silk lol
lol, nice so we all need to get some aol dialup
What’s interesting though off topic, players of CoD AW are screaming for dedicated servers since the lag comp over there is “out of control”. Well, we all know dedicated servers are not the answer. I think we should go back to games from 2009 when your speedy connection was a good thing. LAG comp has killed FPS! BF4 is IMO a combination of over dialed comp and poor code.
I reckon it’s 90% lag compensation and out of region that is messing the servers up. I would put money on it. I’m gonna upload a video soon of some recent clips, where weird stuff has been happening due to oor. I was in a room in pearl market, and got shot from a guy that was in the room above. Through the ceiling and round a corner. Work that one out.
Those choppers that eat main rounds like air soft pellets, called it black smoking in bf3. Makes OOR pretty obvious
So after 16 pages in this thread, what good has come of it regarding BF4?
Nothing.
Yet… You keep posting in it. Maybe just maybe, one day they oor problem will be fixed.
Eu rush server today, mainly Americans. And a Mexican and Brazilian. The joys!
I can show you a thread started by me that was posted prior to the promise of a fix (November patch) with 2531 replies on the subject. Yes, you are correct. Nothing becomes of it but, I suppose it does show how some of us love BF so much, we just wish it to work properly and for all to enjoy - not just the laglords. But again, it’s pointless. If anyone does know a work around, please share. All my testings did very little since the big patch.
Glad to see USWEST servers are full of skrubs from Europe and Asia guess I wont be playing today.
First day of Hardline Beta im gonna strat a post in those forums about this maybe Visc. Devs pay attention to console issues there doing a great job with PC CTE and are active in the CTE forums from what I have heard.
The 20 players that play in there region should not be forced to play with 44 OOR player with pings from 120-400
yes it worked on ps3 also
Care to elaborate, THOTR? What works? What have you tested post patch that levels the field?
Yeah help us out
Japanskillz>americanskillz. Enough said don’t like it ? Kill yourself
Oh yes sweet irony
